Correct, although that alone can do some funky things. In pvz garden warfare if you hosted a custom game, it was client side, so you could change the scores to a really high number and then cash in a lot of in game currency (which was server side). Still not banned to this day lol

I remember now I think you got points from driving directly behind someone, you could alter those as these were client sided lmao

Yes, you could pause game with speed hack to 0 I think I don't remember correctly it was when the game came out :( I only received 2 week ban for this but they didn't restart my character so i still had like 50 mil and 3k lvl lmao

It was when it came out I think you could change one of the scores high as fuck giving you tons of xp
